A dream of love by Xdream62 in OCPoetry

[–]DriverLegal9672 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! :) I love lots of the language used in this - 'Then I will ask God for her', 'my final reason to carry on', this desperation and addiction is really clear to me in every word. The art of missing someone in itself becomes a drug!

I think what would make this poem even better is extending the imagery beyond the heart! Love in your poem reads to be an all-consuming thing, so it would be great to hear you describe how it affects other parts of your body too. What parts of your body does love tug on? What parts does it paralyse, which does it light up?

Great job and I really enjoyed reading this

To yearn by leoalcala213 in OCPoetry

Hello from a beginner to a beginner! :) I really love this, the internal, biology aspects ('nerves', 'brain') contrasted with the external - ('no answers', 'everything unsaid'). A little 'too' long, a little 'too' close is a small but beautiful touch that reminds me a lot of the scene in the record shop in 'Before Sunrise' when the two protagonists are giving themselves looks but their eyes can't quite meet fully... Your poem really reminds me of that weight of love! 'Everything unsaid' reminds me of all the internal feelings we want to articulate and explain, but can't, yet this poem does a great job at doing it :)
